Catalyst 03:45

[“We were wondering how it all happened in the beginning No one knows what happened in the beginning.”] Don't underestimate The power of your thoughts Of my influence On your perfect sense Too cool to be liquid Too faint to be solid You see me sparkle I see you purple I am the catalyst Filter without a filter I am the catalyst Narrowing you down You could say anything Significant, compelling Choose an end and find Somewhere to begin The string that shoots you off Shows you the direction It’s mental Dismantle Not everyone is mental It’s mental It’s true All there is is mental for you too I am the catalyst Filter without a filter I am the catalyst Narrowing you down I am the catalyst Filter without a filter I am the catalyst Narrowing you down [“I kept thinking, who the hell does he think he is?” How do you know what he’s saying? I mean, how does he know what he is saying is right? And I was really very resistant.”]

Path 05:03
lyrics

Thought much but said little Always foreboding gloomy things It’s a common drill, We move rashly when we ought to stand still Thought much still cannot speak Only hold on and blink Wrinkled yet lucid We harden when we ought to stay fluid Sink back into our toes There’s nothing to go back down below Think of something good Suspect your mistrust Be good, don’t leave the path Longed much but got little Don’t know you half as well as I’d like In all likelihood The true obstruction is within my thinking As much as I may want to Blame others for my adversities Floods to rotten fish They’re the profit of my futile beliefs We are what we repeatedly do The way we carry ourselves Molds and shapes our cells This place is so empty, My thoughts are so tempting. Flip the script Don’t bloat Stay afloat Sink back into our toes There’s nothing to go back down below Think of something good Suspect your mistrust Be good, don’t leave the path [“In the widest sense of the word. It is an education. An education. It is something like antique philosophy And not what we understand by technique It is something that touches upon the whole of man And which challenges also the whole of man. It is an education. Widest sense of the word.”]

Seeds 02:39

[“This is the kind behavior I might have expected of you. All I do is leave the room for a few minutes and what do I find? The answer is water”] There are things that I’ve been meaning to hallow Bring them out of the fuzzy shallow I mean something wonderful that you can swallow A garden swollen to a field Planting seeds [“Soil rich and productive”] Feels like planting seeds [“The temperature here may hit a 100 degrees in the shade”] Planting seeds [“Water to clench the thirst”] Feels like planting seeds [“One moment please”] They don’t care about the special features Catchy villains disguised as teachers Crawling, feeling their way, the groping dirty old bleachers Trying to reach our Garden swollen to a field [“I tell them”] Planting seeds [“Listen to the sounds of freshness”] Feels like planting seeds [“Well how did you feel about it”] Planting seeds [“Did you think it was a good idea?”] Feels like planting seeds [“Indispensable, All vegetable”] Feels like [“Will you make a copy of this? Naturally!”] Feels like planting seeds [“Try it now, today, a week from Tuesday.”] Planting [“I just couldn’t, I couldn’t possibly tell you It’s here, can’t you feel it?”]

Shine 03:36
lyrics

There’s a shade other worldly In all the things I feel lately Inflated and romanticized Permeating my surroundings Prose and poetry Through this cavity flow freely Urging me to be patient For the time is nigh But not here Not yet     The cosmos is pronouncing And we're starting to shine Expanding Who cares why? What a wonderful design! Regardless of my desire It won’t unfold after nor before By your regard pollinated Pregnant bursting with emotion Shade of honesty Through this cavity gestures freely Wooing me for attention For the time is now And right here The place The cosmos is pronouncing And we're starting to shine Expanding, Who cares why? What a wonderful design! Yeah we're starting to shine [“And then suddenly it dawned on me. He means that what happens psychically is the real reality. Either this man is crazy or I’m too stupid to understand what it means”]

Sun 04:05
lyrics

Not sure where I am Or if I am falling in tenderness Socially acceptable insanity This surge of woo, growing into two There’s some kind of sorcery In the way you're put together Closer scrutiny fills me With impressions I know not how to speak Through your shadow The sun knows where to go Trust your intuition Be guided by love Not sure if I am In lands of waking or of dream Unstoppable I’m drifting on songfully That hole in the moon, I punched it there for you. Though I'm not the one you’re seeing today I give you my amity Caught between a rock and a hard place Desire means nothing to me Through your shadow The sun knows where to go Trust your intuition Be guided by love I won’t try to spell it out Catch as catch can in the dark Meet you in the meadow And take the scenic route Through your shadow The sun knows where to go Trust your intuition Be guided by love Through your shadow The sun knows where to go Trust your intuition Be guided by love [“Now, these are lower dimensional slices of a reality That is ultimately Unitary, Ineffable, Unspeakable And dazzling.”]

There is no question We are ideally suited Conquered my mind Did you also need to conquer my heart? Inner stirring regarding your style Certainly not trivial Certainly not My self But it feels like your self Feels like this self In your self Is my self too (x2) There is no question You are ideally suited to me Peeked anyway knowing the dangers Of second hand perception Glimpsed the potential for elation Certainly not trivial Certainly not My self But it feels like your self Feels like this self In your self Is my self too (x2)

[“Oh no, What’s wrong? It’s your coffee again. Ed, really Sorry honey But your coffee tastes terrible.”] Oh man! I was really upbeat this morning Knock it down Don’t let it grow Oh man! I was feeling a beat this morning Break it down Don’t let me up It's getting nearer And at this pace There won’t be enough of me To spread on a cracker Thank you for Being the needle That hurt me the most Needless to say Hope is great But I need caffeine To stay awake [“Gonna serve your coffee? Don’t joke about my coffee again! How about another cup honey? You seconds on my coffee? Tastes kinda great tonight!] Oh man! I was having a fit this morning Heard it crack There’s no way back It's getting nearer And at this pace There wont be enough of me To spread on a cracker Thank you for being the needle That hurt me the most Needless to say Hope is great But I need caffeine to stay awake [“I’m out of coffee! You’re out of coffee? Isn’t that wonderful? Be patient! Oh come on (Peanut?) wait a minute How did it taste? Sweet Sour? Wonderful! Nice pose rasta! You added nothing to that conversation. I’m going to give you this completely nutritious cup, Will you drink it? Even if, even if you’re not really well-mannered you can make a habit of being civil. Be patient! See, no trick to making coffee All you need is a better coffee A really big jar of coffee!”] Thank you for being the needle That hurt me the most Needless to say Hope is great But I need caffeine to stay awake Need caffeine to stay awake Need caffeine to stay awake Wake Wake Wake wake up! [“Did you have a nice time dear? Very nice thanks. Oh you don’t look much like a girl having a wonderful evening!]

Sink 03:01

I really don't know why I feel hollow in this lonely place I wish you slept at night I wish I had something funny to say A little more levity would do me good Sinking in the water Chasing the moon Monkey man desire Fed by spoon Still tryin’ to figure out Why I’m stuck inside this lonely place I know I need your hand Though I lack the courage to say A little less gravity would do me good Like the moon crossing the sun Things like these come to be You know you shouldn't But you still do Then you don't know what to do Sinking in the water Chasing the moon Monkey man desire Fed by spoon Sleeping underwater Holding the moon Blending in the mire With you soon Sink in the water Sink in the water Sink in the water Sink in the waah

Hairball 04:12
lyrics

[“Now in slow motion, We can see what happens When a cat is dropped From an upside down position.”] There is a code here A code difficult to find It seems to be The guide you're looking for The eye knows where The heart should follow Learn it all from staring Into the black on a monograph A song lingering with care Coughing up a hairball Buzzing in the air Be well with yourself So you can dwell with someone else Flayed your freedom to love Wide eyed nocturnal animal Faint glimmering As It burns you within For the heart life is simple It beats for as long as it can Until it stops singing This song lingering with care Coughing up a hairball Buzzing in the air Be well with yourself So you can dwell with someone else So you can dwell with someone else You can dwell with someone else [“I feel sorry for you. If you can’t see it then you’ll just never know it.”]
